    Had a wonderful evening. Menu extensive, with delicious sounding options. What we had was excellent. Service from the young lady looking after us was next level, she is a credit to the restaurant The owner/s should be proud of what they have accomplished.

    Wow what a great new place. Went here for our wedding anniversary. The food was just delicious. We had the Duck Ragout and the Rigatoni. Both excellent. Tiramisu and Panna cotta after, were also really lovely. The staff were great. Great service and super friendly.

    Valentines Day lunch at La Gioia, we had the ragu di manzo, rigatoni con pistachio, caprese salad and the fennel, gorgonzola salad. Excellent presentation of all meals, generous servings and great service. Very enjoyable experience and we both left the restaurant very full. Highly recommend

    Lovely food , rocket needed a dressing on the waygu steak meal. A little on the pricey side, but it was very nice if you are going to charge high end prices you need to provide exceptional services. The waitresses were lovely they just needed a little tweeking. But I would come back again.
